abundance

every year i wrestle with how to convey the utter exuberance that is crabapple blossom season. and every year the images i photograph look like colorful chaos, and not joyful abundance. this year was no exception. i spent an hour posing branches this way and that before i finally admitted defeat. so i plucked the blossoms from the stems and tossed them on white paper, and click click click. i like the results. yay chaos. joyful abundance, you can kiss my ass.
